As violent protests rage in Bihar over the new military recruitment policy, Agnipath, distressing visuals of vandalism and chaotic disruption of rail and road traffic continue to pour in. In one such incident, news agency ANI tweeted a video of a school bus, with children on board, that got stuck in the road blockade by agitators in Darbhanga. #WATCH | Bihar: A school bus, with children on board, got stuck in the road blockade by agitators in Darbhanga.

The video clip, shot from inside the bus, shows children in school uniforms peering through the windows at the protests outside. One of the children can be seen weeping and trying to wipe his tears as the person shooting the video repeatedly asks whether he is scared, and what's scaring him. A woman, presumably a teacher accompanying the students, asks him to get off the bus.
